With hundreds of EELV executives and activists, Yannick Jadot published a column in the Sunday newspaper to call for "
refounding
" the party.
Ecologists are organizing their summer days in Grenoble from Thursday to Saturday, under the sign of the December congress.
Marine Tondelier, the initiator of the internal collective "
La Suite
", and who could run for the succession to the national secretary Julien Bayou, notes in the gallery that on climate change, "
being right before everyone else does not give us any right and will never be enough to impose ourselves as electoral or societal evidence

The Greens candidate Yannick Jadot gathered 4.6% of the presidential vote in April, far from the first left-wing candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon, which forced EELV to line up behind the latter within the New Ecological Popular Union and social (Nupes).
"
We want Europe Écologie Les Verts to rebuild itself, with its partners in the environmental pole (such as Générations and Génération Écologie, Ed) and all those who wish to do so
", writes Marine Tondelier, assisted by the former head of the list. to the Europeans of Generation Ecology Dominique Bourg, the mayor of Poitiers Léonore Moncond'huy and the former deputy and mathematician Cédric Villani.
An “
ecological class
” exists, “
much larger than the encartée community
” among the Greens, estimates the municipal councilor of Hénin-Beaumont (Pas-de-Calais): “
Parents and grandparents worried about their children
”, “
peasants crushed by the industrial agricultural model
” or even “
entrepreneurs aware of planetary limits
”.
The line of the movement that she wishes to see born would be in favor of “
degrowth
” and in “
opposition to capitalism or economic neo-liberalism, to productivism and to nationalisms, destroyers of life and solidarity
”, specifies Ms. Tondelier.
Among the signatories of the platform are the mayors of Grenoble Eric Piolle and Strasbourg Jeanne Barseghian, the former presidential candidate Noël Mamère, the former number 1 of the party David Cormand, the deputy Générations Sébastien Peytavie or the president of the group environmentalists in the Senate Guillaume Gontard.
If she presented herself at the head of the party, Marine Tondelier could notably face the finalist of the primary, the “
eco-feminist
” Sandrine Rousseau.
In an interview also with the JDD, Yannick Jadot also said he wanted "
an ecological list for Europeans
" autonomous from the Nupes.
“
Our differences with La France insoumise justify this autonomy
”, he pleads.
